Figure 4.
[18F]FLT-PET in a patient with locally advanced rectal cancer. Anterior and posterior projection images demonstrate intense [18F]FLT uptake in bone that reflects the proliferation of cells the in bone marrow. There is increased accumulation of [18F]FLT in the rectal cancer (arrowhead in right panel). In addition, there is increased accumulation of [18F]FLT in the urinary bladder (arrow in the left panel), which is a normal finding.
